“Fairy stories hold up a mirror to man. They show us ourselves. They are where storytelling and truth telling meet with the kiss of wonder. This collection of new fairy stories takes us to many once-upon-a-time places which always point to the happy-ever-after that awaits the virtuous soul.” - Joseph Pearce, Director of the Center for Faith and Culture at Aquinas College in Nashville, Tennessee; author of Frodo’s Journey: Discovering the Hidden Meaning of The Lord of the Rings

“Rose John Sheffler’s wildly imaginative, delicately written, poignantly moving fairy tales combine the vision and artistry of C.S. Lewis and Hans Christian Andersen. Like Lewis, she enables her readers to re-experience the stories of the Bible in such a way as to restore their original power, freshness, and strangeness. Like Andersen, she touches on that which is most elemental in human nature, thus allowing us to discover ourselves in the most fantastical of stories. These tales will instruct and delight children and adults of all ages.” - Louis Markos, Professor in English and Scholar in Residence, Houston Baptist University; author of On the Shoulders of Hobbits: The Road to Virtue with Tolkien and Lewis
